Meanwhile, if the Nuggets cannot convince Carmelo Anthony to sign an extension with the team and they decide to trade him at some point, could it be to the Los Angeles Clippers? I’m hearing it could be a possibility. It would get both he and his wife, La La, out to where entertainment opportunities are plentiful, which is key factor in their decision to want to move on. The Nuggets might be able to get a good young player or two or draft picks, and Anthony would be able to play on a team with some good up-and-coming talent.

“I’m hearing it could be a possibility.”

I love statements like that. He’s not saying that it’s a possibility, he’s saying that it could be possible. In other words, it’s possible that it’s possible.

Great.

Clipper fans are a loyal, downtrodden bunch. Let them be. They just missed out on LeBron James even though they were never really in the running. Owner Donald Sterling vastly underestimates how bad his image is around the league, and the Clippers aren’t likely to have sustained success until he sells the team.

But John, I think you’re jumping the gun that it’s POSSIBLE that it’s POSSIBLE. He’s just saying he’s HEARING that it’s POSSIBLE that it’s POSSIBLE.

And he’s not even saying from whom he’s hearing it.

You know, I thought one of the bigger stories of the LeBrocalypse was the way in which the media was manipulated throughout the whole thing. I figured that any time there were any rumors thereafter, people would automatically disregard statements like, “I’m hearing that it could be possible”. But I guess that was pretty naive of me.

I tell ya what though, if he goes to LA, they’d have quite a team out there.
Davis, Gordon, Melo, Griffin, Kaman… that’s a helluva lineup if they can manage to keep some of their assets in the Melo trade.
